On Dynamic Boundary Conditions Within the Linear Steigmann-Ogden Model of Surface Elasticity and Strain Gradient Elasticity
PublicationWithin the strain gradient elasticity we discuss the dynamic boundary conditions taking into account surface stresses described by the Steigmann–Ogden model. The variational approach is applied with the use of the least action functional. The functional is represented as a sum of surface and volume integrals. The surface strain and kinetic energy densities are introduced. The Toupin–Mindlin formulation of the strain gradient elasticity...
